About: I have owned dogs my whole life, mostly rescued all of my dogs. I have volunteered for dog and cat rescues including Rocket Dog Rescue in San Francisco. I volunteered for SPCA for over 10 years. I also have fostered many dogs and volunteered for dog shelters to be able to walk dogs. I started walking dogs in college over 20 years ago on the side. I have worked for Honeys Heart in San Francisco where I helped with boarding, training, cleaning and feeding dogs as well as taking care and walking dogs. Of course tons of belly rubs and play time! I have fostered puppies as well as adult seniors. Some dogs I fostered for weeks to months until I found a loving home. I absolutely love and care for animals and I’m always excited to be part of their lives. I I feel that all animals need to have unconditional love and care and complete trust and respect. “Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened”- Anatole. I am open to any schedule full-time Monday through Sunday. AM/PM I have complete open availability to care to your fur baby. I can do multiple walks a day or take your dog to my local dog park. I have a fenced yard and a small friendly dog in a tucked away, safe neighborhood in fair Oaks. I can do daily walks as well as crate train. I give all of my attention and care and can cater to every and any need.
“Jourdan has been great! She came to meet Louie and you could see they got along almost instantly, was on time and sent me pictures!!! You can't go wrong with her she was awesome!”


About: I genuinely love being around dogs and have been trusted by friends and family to care for their pets many times over the years. I’m reliable, easy to communicate with, and focused on making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. Caring for pets has been part of my life through helping friends and family with their dogs over the years. With graduation coming up and a flexible summer schedule, I'm excited to spend more time doing something I really enjoy. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big deal. I focus on creating a safe, comfortable environment. I follow the owner's instructions carefully, making sure their pet receives plenty of attention and care, whether they re staying with me or I'm caring for them in their own home.
“Brooklyn has been walking Maggie for a week now and Maggie loves Brooklyn! Brooklyn is prompt to respond to requests and easy to communicate with. Maggie will be 14 this year and she requires accommodations and special handling. Brooklyn has demonstrated compassion and understanding with my detailed instructions. She takes care to pay attention to Maggie's energy and gait and provides updates on her activities. Brooklyn is trustworthy and I feel comfortable with giving her access to my home when I'm away. Thank you Brooklyn!”

A happy healthy pet is my goal. ♡ I work part-time now, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday so now my availability is Thursday through Saturday. I'll consider Sundays on an as needed basis.

About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life, including dogs, cats, fish, and even a bunny! I’ve also cared for neighbors’ pets, including both big and small dogs and cats. I’m comfortable following feeding routines, providing playtime and companionship, giving pets plenty of attention, and making sure they feel safe and cared for while their families are away. I’m responsible, patient, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with animals! I’m currently a student at Sacramento State and have classes on Mondays and Wednesdays, so my availability is more limited during late mornings through early evenings on those days. I also have a baby, so I may need to coordinate visits around his schedule or most likely bring him with me to services with animals who are ok with kiddos. I’m happy to communicate ahead of time and work with each family to find a schedule that works well for everyone! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’m happy to care for pets in their own home, where they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, follow their owner’s instructions carefully, and make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, exercise, food, and fresh water. I’ll also keep their space clean and provide regular updates so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for!

“Riley has been such a amazing help while I was recovering from an injury that prevented me from being able to take my dog on a walk. He was very careful of her limitstions of being dog reactive and made me feel comfortable that she was in good hands!”

“Raina has done a wonderful job walking our dog. We had a lot of additional details and she can be a bit of a high maintenance pup and Raina took it all in stride. Our pup loves her and her walks!”

“Sweet person! My 18 month Aussie was so happy to get out and play/walk with her! She even gave her a bath when she had an accident! Will definitely be rebooking with her.”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who’s been surrounded by pups for as long as I can remember. My partner and I currently have two sweet, professionally trained dogs who are super dog-friendly and love making new furry friends! We also foster dogs, so we’re used to all kinds of personalities—from the super shy to the zoomie champions. Our home is full of love (and treats), and our dogs are crate trained, respectful, and always ready to welcome a new buddy into the pack. Whether your pup needs a midday walk, a drop-in visit for some playtime and belly rubs, or just a friendly face while you're away, we’ve got you covered! We love getting to know each dog’s unique personality and learning what makes them happiest—whether that’s chasing a ball, sniffing every tree, or just lounging in the sun. We can’t wait to meet your pup and help them feel right at home (even when they’re not)! I work from home and have plenty of time to care for your pets! Including midday walks, potty breaks, and outside playtime. We're available for boarding on weekends, starting at 5pm on Fridays. Your pup’s safety and comfort are our top priorities! We have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play, and our two friendly, well-trained dogs love having new friends to hang out with. Need a little extra space? No problem—we’re happy to crate dogs if requested or provide separate areas in our home for pups who prefer their own quiet corner. Whether your dog is super social or enjoys a bit more independence, we’re here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved every step of the way.

About: Hi! I have always loved animals, growing up with many cats, dogs, chickens, fish, birds, etc. Right now I have a cat, Luna, who we love dearly! We are not quite ready to fully pause travel and commit full time to a dog at home, so I am looking forward to enjoying some dog time via Rover! I am available all day on weekends, and after 5:15pm on week days. My Sat/Sun availability will vary based on my schedule, but I would love to take walks on my open weekends! I plan to ask pet preferences and communicate with the owner prior to our first walk. I am in tune with what a dog’s mood and what they may be communicating during our walk. I hope they enjoy the walk and my company during our time together.
“KiAshe has been so wonderful with my pup. She has been reliable with showing up on time for his walks and sending me updates and pictures while at work. The pup always looks happy while he’s with her :) thank you!!”

“Have had Isabella dog walking service for a few months now, and I am still thrilled with her service! She's super attentive for my pup and I've seen such a growth in independence and potty training since having her. Thanks a million again, Isabella!”

“Natalie did a great job. We have a recent rescue who has a lot of trauma and no training yet, and of course we are working with him daily to try to get him sorted out. But it’s a lot, and it’s hard to find someone who can handle him — he’s 70 pounds! Literally other dog sitters have met him and felt overwhelmed or intimidated. Natalie was fantastic. She has a ton of dog experience because she works with dogs daily as her profession, and it really shows. She was the perfect combination of compassionate, patient and firm to handle our tornado pup. I would use her again in a heartbeat (in fact we have already booked her) and I’d recommend her to anyone.”

About: I have cared for and owned many kinds of cats & dogs throughout the years. I've had purebreds and mixed breeds, rescues and ferals even special needs. I’ve clipped nails, given pills and even shots when needed. I love all cats and dogs. . I am retired so I can easily schedule your pet into my daily routine. I'm available Monday through Sunday, whenever you have a need for me.. I will come to your home and care for your pets needs while you're away. I will clean in and around litter boxes and walk your dog. I’ll feed, water and give all of your fur babies love.

The average cost for Dog Walking in Fair Oaks on Rover is $21.09 per walk (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Fair Oaks. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Fair Oaks.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Fair Oaks. On Rover:
- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
